WW2 GERMAN SS HAT EAGLE AND SKULL INSIGNIA-SOLD
GB96

A non matched original pair of WW2 German SS hat insignia (Eagle and Skull). consisting of zinc based hat eagle with nearly all its original finish intact it is marked to the rear with the RZM M1/167, this number identifies the maker Augustin Hicke. This insignia came in two and three pronged versions, this version is the rarer three prong however a prong is broken (top left) but the prong is still present and the image shows it in position but be aware it is not secured to the badge.

The skull insignia is marked to the rear with RZM 52 which identifies the maker as Deschler. The two prongs to the rear are intact.

Original SS hat insignia are hard to find especially to Augustin Hicke, overseas the eagle itself commands a price of US$1200 and the skull US$500 and upwards. My price is $AU1650.
